Failure to follow safe installation and service guidelines could result in death or
serious injury
• Make sure only qualified personnel perform installation or service.
• Use the equipment only as specified in this QIG and the Reference Manual. Failure to
do so may impair the protection provided by the equipment.
• Any substitution of non-recognized spare parts may jeopardize safety. Repair, e.g.
substitution of components etc. may also jeopardize safety and is under no
circumstances allowed.
Explosions could result in death or serious injury
• Verify that the operating environment of the transmitter is consistent with the
appropriate hazardous locations specifications. See Product Certifications on page 18
in this Quick Installation Guide.
• In an Explosion-proof/Flameproof installation, do not remove the transmitter covers
when power is applied to the unit.
• Before connecting a HART®-based Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make
sure the instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or
non-incendive field wiring practices.
• To avoid process leaks, only use o-ring designed to seal with the corresponding
flange adapter.
Electrical shock can result in death or serious injury
• Avoid contact with the leads and terminals. High voltage that may be present on leads
can cause electrical shock.
• Make sure the main power to the Rosemount 3300 Series transmitter is off and the
lines to any other external power source are disconnected or not powered while wiring
the transmitter.
Probes with non-conducting surfaces
• Probes covered with plastic and/or with plastic discs may generate an ignition-
capable level of electrostatic charge under certain extreme conditions. Therefore,
when the probe is used in a potentially explosive atmosphere, appropriate measures
must be taken to prevent electrostatic discharge.
